Introducing spirituality in the workplace can help improve employee personality types and job performance. There are three main personality types - sattvik, rajasik, and tamasik - each with different characteristics that can influence work philosophy, intentions, attitudes, risk-taking, relationships, and outcomes. Cultivating noble intentions through spiritual values and detaching one's ego from accomplishments can help improve job performance and cultivate peace of mind. Leading with compassion by inspiring others through one's own example is key to effective leadership. Maintaining balance, managing worries and leisure time, and focusing on cultivating qualities like patience, knowledge, and character can help ensure one leads a purposeful and meaningful life.

6. Gita’s guidance
Philosophy @ Work
In this (Detached performance) there is no loss of
effort, nor is there any harm (contrary result). Even a
little performance protects one from great fear.
The essence of Karma Yoga
You can choose your action.
You cannot choose the result of action.
You can choose your reaction.
May you not be without action.

Whatever a great man does, that other
men also imitate; whatever he sets up
as the standard, that the world follows.
Bhagavad-Gita 3.21
